Well VG Chartz just came out with their list of the 25 best selling video games of 2008. No surprise to see that Nintendo dominates the chart but more surprising are some of the titles. Some of them are Mario Kart Wii at number 1, GTA IV XBOX 360 at number 5, Brain Training DS at number 7, Metal Gear Solid PS3 at 17, and Guitar Hero World Tour Wii at number 23.
Some interesting notes. First, Brain Training (the first one) outsold it's sequel this year. A full two years after it debuted! That is insane. Nintendo dominated with 14 of the top spots going to either Wii or DS. And only three of those were non Nintendo titles (GH: World Tour and Mario and SOnic at the Olympics Wii/DS). Activision was the other big winner with 4 titles showing up, three for Call of Duty titles. Last note is that the PSP did make an appearance at number 20 with the immesley popular Monster Hunter 2nd G.
